Aptera claims to be able to get 40 miles a day via solar. Most people drive less than that per day.

You should actually watch their videos and do some research before spewing your speculations. Seems like it's going to be pretty safe to me.

Their tech isn't just the solar, they've optimized the car solely for efficiency. They claim their car can get 10 mi/kwh, so with 700W of solar panels they can get up to 40 miles of charge per day with just the solar. By contrast, the solar panels that are available on the new Prius get 4 miles of charge per day.

Now that their production-intent vehicles are just starting to be built up, I'm eagerly awaiting their actual test data that hopefully verifies their claims on efficiency, range, crash safety, etc. but we'll see 🤞 I really hope they succeed.

Lots of people here criticizing Aptera who clearly haven't researched the company or the tech.

I think Bezos, Musk, and Zuck are each much more of a planetwrecker than Swift.

If you want to learn more about microwaves and how incredibly dangerous their components can be you should check out Styropyro's youtube channel.

They had these in a game I used to play, I wanna say Sim City 2000? It was called a microwave power plant and I think occasionally the beam coming to Earth would miss the power plant and start a fire, but my memory's a bit fuzzy.

Trump has seen himself in the mirror with that splotchy bronzer on and he thinks he looks good. I mean... look at his mouth. WTF.

We've known this for a long time... Almost 4 years actually

1st time printing with ASA and it's my largest print that doesn't have any straight lines. I typically only design things with straight lines, pretty pleased with how this turned out. Threw in a cactus to fend off the cats but fortunately they don't seem very interested. Printed on a Bambu X1 carbon with Polymaker ASA.

They're almost 3 now. When I picked them up they had different names (Miley and Twilight) but nobody knew which was which so I figured different names were in order.

Been kind of obsessed with this track lately. Some of his tracks are on Spotify but not this one yet.
